Who It’s For
These puzzles are written with Kindergarten and 1st grade students in mind, when addition and subtraction facts within 10 are introduced and practiced daily.
They also work well for:
-
Remediation in 2nd grade, for students who need more support with fluency
-
Enrichment in Kindergarten, for advanced students ready for extra challenge
-
On-level practice in 1st grade, where fluency to 10 is a central standard
This flexibility makes them a great resource across the primary grades.
What Students Will Practice
The puzzles target addition and subtraction facts within 10, encouraging students to think critically while solving. Skills reinforced include:
-
Adding and subtracting within 10
-
Solving for missing addends or unknowns
-
Fact families and the relationship between addition and subtraction
-
Building fluency with simple equations
-
Using logic to solve puzzles in non-routine formats
Students see these activities as puzzles instead of worksheets, which makes practice feel like a challenge to solve instead of work to finish.
Easy Ways to Use Them
Because the puzzles are no-prep, you can use them in many ways throughout the year. Teachers often use them as:
-
Morning work or bell-ringers to get brains moving first thing
-
Math center activities for partners or independent practice
-
Early finisher challenges so students always have something meaningful to do
-
Homework or take-home practice to reinforce fluency with families
-
Whole-class number talks, projecting a puzzle and reasoning through it together
-
Sub plans, since the format is simple and engaging with no extra explanation needed
Because each month follows the same format, students quickly learn how the puzzles work. That consistency allows you to use them all year long without reteaching directions.
Teacher-Friendly Format
Everything is designed with busy teachers in mind. You can:
-
Print full-size worksheets for independent work
-
Shrink puzzles to task-card size for small group tubs or centers
-
Use the Google Slides version for interactive lessons or paperless classrooms
Recording sheets make it easy to track student responses, and answer keys give you flexibility for grading or student self-checking.
Month-by-Month Motivation
Young students love seasonal changes, and this bundle takes advantage of that excitement. Each month features a new holiday or seasonal theme, so students look forward to what’s next.
A Halloween set in October, a Thanksgiving pack in November, or a Valentine’s Day puzzle in February keeps things fun while reinforcing the same critical math skills. The variety keeps engagement high without you having to find new activities every month.
